Vancouver’s Clarius Mobile Health has been named to Fast Company‘s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies.
Clarius’ ultrasound devices connect to electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets, allowing clinicians access to medical imaging in real time, improving patient care and reducing healthcare costs.
Clarius earned the #2 standing in the medical device category for its outstanding contributions to improving healthcare with innovation.
“We push the limits of innovation every day at Clarius to improve access to medical imaging for all and it’s a great honour to have our efforts recognized by Fast Company,” said Clarius CEO Ohad Arazi.
“More than 25,000 of our AI-powered handheld ultrasound systems have been delivered into the hands of clinicians in 58 countries over the past 8 years and we’re just getting started.”
In 2023, Clarius introduced the world’s first handheld dual-array scanner for whole-body ultrasound that delivers clear real-time views of superficial and deep anatomy at the patient’s bedside.
The new Clarius PAL HD3 stands out by offering the broadest frequency range (1 to 15 MHz) and greatest imaging depth (40 cm), making it the preferred handheld scanner for clinicians seeking high-definition image quality and diagnostic flexibility.
Last week the Pacific Economic Development Agency of Canada (PacifiCan) invested $3,385,000 into Clarius as part of their Business Scale-Up and Productivity program. The funding will help Clarius accelerate export sales of its wireless handheld ultrasound devices used by medical professionals for point-of-care testing.
